About this home
Nestled between protected preserve land and the tranquil waters of the Delaware Bay, this exceptional 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath coastal retreat at 549 Bay Avenue in Slaughter Beach, Milford, DE offers a rare opportunity for true waterfront living. Barely two years old and gently enjoyed, this home blends modern elegance with peaceful seaside charm. Wake up to sweeping panoramic views from both the front and back of the property, complemented by private beach access for endless shoreline walks and unforgettable sunsets.
A standout feature is the thoughtfully designed in-law suite or income-producing rental space, complete with its own private entrance, full kitchen, living area, bedroom, and bathroom—ideal for hosting guests, accommodating extended family, or generating supplemental revenue.
Outdoor living takes center stage with five expansive decks, including a welcoming front porch overlooking the salt marsh preserve, two rear decks accessible from the in-law suite and main living room, and a private deck off the primary suite. An additional second-floor sitting room deck provides yet another serene vantage point with preserve views.
Inside, the home showcases a stunning custom kitchen with high-end cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, wrap-around bar seating, and elegant marbled stone countertops. Modern comforts abound, including central air conditioning, washer and dryer, and thoughtful finishes throughout.
For boating and water enthusiasts, nearby marina access and a boat slip make it easy to embrace life on the bay.
Perfectly positioned for nature lovers, bird watchers, and outdoor adventurers, this home is also just a short drive from downtown Milford, the beaches and dining of Lewes, Rehoboth, Dewey, and Bethany, and the scenic charm of coastal Delaware. Enjoy easy access to shopping, local restaurants, golf, state parks, and day trips via the Cape May–Lewes Ferry, connecting you effortlessly to New Jersey and beyond—all while returning home to the unmatched peace and beauty of Slaughter Beach.
